Registering and Logging In
MyVeeva users may experience the following issues while registering their account and logging in to MyVeeva for Patients:
User Issue | Resolution |
---|---|
I didn’t receive the eConsent email that my site told me to expect. |
If the participant or signatory doesn’t receive the email, the email may be incorrect in SiteVault or an error might have occurred. To resolve this issue, complete one of the steps below, depending on the status of the eConsent form. You can determine the status by checking the Veeva eConsent Status field on the signed ICF documents that were created for the participant.
See the Tracking eConsent Forms page for more information about the statuses. |
I lost or deleted my eConsent email before completing my eConsent form. |
Ask the user to check their spam folder and trash. If they didn’t set their password and log in before they deleted the email, you can cancel and resend the eConsent form and they’ll receive a new email. If they registered their account but didn’t sign or decline the forms, you can also ask them to log in directly at https://patients.myveeva.com/ or in the MyVeeva for Patients Android or iOS applications. Their uncompleted forms will be displayed on the Tasks page when they log in. |
I’m having trouble creating a password. |
Ensure that the user is meeting the password requirements displayed on the registration page and explain what special characters are if they aren’t sure. You can also ask them to check that their caps lock isn’t on. See the Registration and Login page on the MyVeeva for Patients Help website for more information about how users set passwords. |
I tried to reset my password but didn’t receive an email. |
Complete the following steps to resolve this issue:
|
I received a password reset email, but I didn’t request it. |
Although it's most likely that someone else accidentally entered the incorrect email address when attempting to reset their own password, ask the user to reset their password to err on the side of caution and prevent losing access to their account. See the Registration and Login page on the MyVeeva for Patients Help website for more information about how users reset passwords. |
I can’t log in. The application says the credentials don’t match any in MyVeeva for Patients. |
Complete the following steps to resolve this issue:
See the Registration and Login page on the MyVeeva for Patients Help website for more information about how users log in and reset passwords. |
I requested a verification code, but I didn’t receive a text message or voice call. |

Reviewing and Signing eConsent Forms
The user may experience the following issues while reviewing and signing eConsent forms in MyVeeva for Patients:
User Issue | Resolution |
---|---|
I have questions about the informed consent content. |
Ask the user to speak with a member of the site staff who can explain the ICF’s content. |
The text is too small to read. |
Instruct the user on how to zoom in using their browser. The MyVeeva for Patients web and iOS applications also support screen readers. Additionally, the MyVeeva for Patients web application supports keyboard navigation. |
I can’t review a form. It’s grayed out or says I have to complete another form first. | Ask the user to return to the Tasks page and complete the available consent forms that are higher on the page. This allows them to complete subsequent forms. Users are required to complete forms in the signing order specified in the eConsent editor. See the Requiring a Signing Order section in Clinical Operations Help for more information about signing order for eConsent forms. |
I can’t sign the form. It says I haven’t read or completed all the sections. |
Complete the following steps to resolve this issue:
See the Consent Forms page on the MyVeeva for Patients Help website for more information. |
When I submit the document, the progress indicator spins and the message doesn’t close. Was my document submitted? |
Complete the following steps to resolve this issue:
See the Consent Forms and Documents pages on the MyVeeva for Patients Help website for more information. |
I closed my browser before I signed and submitted the document. How do I continue? |
Ask the user to log back in at https://patients.myveeva.com/. MyVeeva for Patients tracks the user’s progress through their uncompleted documents, so they can resume reviewing and signing documents easily. See the Consent Forms page on the MyVeeva for Patients Help website for more information. |
I declined an eConsent form accidentally or I changed my mind. How do I sign? |
Users should contact the study site to inform them. Site staff can resend the same version or send a new version of the blank ICF to the participant and their signatories. See the Processing Declined eConsent Forms section for more information. |
How do I download or print a consent form? |
The user can select the Download PDF button in the upper right corner on completed or uncompleted documents to download a form and can use their browser’s or device’s functionality to print it. See the Documents page on the MyVeeva for Patients Help website for more information. |
I received a new version of a consent form I already signed. What changed? |
Compare the current steady state version of the blank ICF in SiteVault to the blank ICF version that the user previously signed using Vault’s compare version functionality. You can determine the blank ICF version that the user previously signed by viewing the Approved ICF Version section of the previously signed ICF's document information. See the Tracing Signed ICFs and Approved Versions help topic for more information. |
Managing Visits and Virtual Visits
The user may experience the following issues while managing visits and virtual visits in MyVeeva for Patients:
User Issue | Resolution |
---|---|
My in-person visit contains a virtual meeting join link. | Currently, MyVeeva for Patients only recognizes virtual meeting join links from Meet, Skype, Teams, and Zoom. If you schedule a virtual visit using a different virtual meeting platform, the visit appears on the user’s calendar as an in-person visit. They can select the virtual meeting join link in the visit details to join the meeting at the appropriate time. See Visits in MyVeeva for Patients Help or the Creating Visits for Study Participants help topic in SiteVault Help. If your site uses a different virtual meeting platform that you wish to see MyVeeva for Patients support, contact Veeva Support. |
My study team says I have an upcoming visit, but it’s not displayed on my Visits page. |
Verify that you scheduled the visit and invited the participant’s MyVeeva calendar alias. If the issue persists, complete the following steps to resolve this issue:

Other MyVeeva User Issues
The user may also experience the following issues in MyVeeva for Patients or during the consent process:
User Issue | Resolution |
---|---|
I declined an eConsent form accidentally or I changed my mind. How do I sign? |
Users should contact the study site to inform them. Site staff can resend the same version or send a new version of the blank ICF to the participant and their signatories. See the Processing Declined eConsent Forms page for more information. |
I want to withdraw from the study. How do I do that? |
Participants should contact the study site to request to withdraw. The site should follow their existing standard operating procedure (SOP) for withdrawing a participant from a study in SiteVault. If a participant or their signatories have outstanding uncompleted eConsent forms, the site should cancel those eConsent forms. You can’t cancel an eConsent form that has been completed in MyVeeva for Patients. If a user wants to delete their MyVeeva for Patients account, the site should contact Veeva. Otherwise, the user can keep their account active to be able to view their existing documents and possibly use the account for other studies in the future. MyVeeva for Patients accounts can be used for multiple sites and studies. |
I think someone has hacked my account. What do I do? |
Ask the user to contact Veeva’s security team at security@veeva.com. |
